Agreed. It's not really privacy violating either, which is important. It's open about what it does and how. We can run #Amethyst, for example, over Tor and use fake info, protect our nsecs, etc if we want, which is good enough for me. I agree that people should explain that instead of calling it privacy respecting. It's closer to privacy neutral in my opinion. The user has to choose. I use my real image and name, so I chose zero privacy. But I could have chosen privacy. 

 Yes, it's important to set proper expectations when purple pilling. Nostr does not give you privacy by default. You still have to practice good OPSEC just like anywhere else on the internet. And, because of the data and metadata all these relays run by literally anyone have access to, maybe even moreso than usual. 

 That's why I find it odd when people using Nostr have a problem with data scraping for AI training, etc. This makes it a lot easier for governments, companies, etc as far as I can tell. That's why I treat it like I'm speaking in a public place. I also don't trust it for sending secure data. Lots of misconceptions indeed.
